Raid: Fam Aggro
Raid: Fam Aggro is coming. It will be the most casual and laid-back 25man progression Raid of Downfall, but it will be a progression Raid.
We have a great deal of raiders who cannot commit to the same time each week, but can commit to the same time most weeks. Are you one of them?
We will be Raiding Friday's after 8pm server time until whenever, and Sundays from 8am server till 12pm server. We will raid on a semi-monthly basis, to be scheduled roughly a week or two ahead of time each Raid.
You as a player will be held to the Raid, and you will be held to your
Zifter and I will be spearheading the QQ, but we would like to see a couple additional Raid Leaders step forward to assist. There is a reason the Raid is named Fam(ily) Aggro, and it would be best to have at least a couple more Raid Leaders to ensure Raid surviveability and continuity. Please send either zifter or myself a PM in the forums if you wish to be a Raid-Leader.
If you are already part of Salmon/Kitten Brigade and have your Friday's off, you are welcome to signup provided it is with an Alt that you have sufficiently geared. However, raiders will be chosen from those not currently part of Kitten Brigade or Salmon first.
*Update*
As we near D-Day, theres some gaps in our current Raid-Comp. We have no Hunters, no Mages, and no Warlocks. I know they got face-melted, but still. :p
Here's the Raid-Comp as it stands. Not naming names yet b/c we are still yacking about it, but everyone who signed up 'currently' is in. Please bear in mind though we need ranged DPS and right now we have A boomkin.

Please post with your available classes and specs. Currently we are six/eight DPS short and one/three healers short of where we would like to be for Friday. Depending on how everything moves we may give a slight delay for a few of our sign-ups to get geared (three are not 80 yet and this Raid is catered to the casuals).

I think you'll find that you
Fjork — Thu, 01/08/2009 - 14:26I think you'll find that you aren't "up" so much as "p0wn3d, crashed, and BURNED!"
That's okay though. My third comes April 21st.
Pedran, very good
bluetouguyss — Thu, 01/08/2009 - 17:33Pedran, very good call...crashed and burned is probably going to be more the case...We had a scare yesterday but all is good now. That is why I havent been on much lately. If we dont have him this weekend she is getting induced on tuesday! Almost time!!!
Carno is exactly right, the
Olorien — Mon, 01/05/2009 - 09:03Carno is exactly right, the times were chosen based off the fact that we have people who just can't raid weeknights. The goal is to start late enough on Friday to be after kids and early enough Sunday to be able to spend some family time in the afternoon.
That being said I am surprised we aren't hearing from some of the east coasters, where 8am Sunday is actually 11.
Anyway this really just a bump to see if there are any more people interested as we get closer.
Atar: A lot of folks I know
carno — Sun, 01/04/2009 - 22:22Atar: A lot of folks I know with kids don't really have a choice on whether they're awake on Sunday mornings.
*sigh* Whenever I spend the night at my brother's, his kid will jump on me until I wake up.
Pedran: Allison says hi!
Haha What Carno failed to
Fjork — Fri, 01/09/2009 - 08:21Haha
What Carno failed to mention is that my kids usually don't jump on him to wake him up till around NOON.
I swear, he comes to visit and decides that sleeping is the best way to spend time with family. I mean, I know it's the best way to avoid those akward conversations with your mother like "So when are you going to give me a grandbaby? Your brother is two years younger than you are and he's given me THREE!", but Carno just sleeps it ALL away!!!!!
hehe
Carno: Give Allison my <3. Finally made it to 76! Gawd I hate RL aggro.
I would have been online from like 7 till midnight last night but they 'fixed' our water pressure yesterday........
.......... which blew the hot-water shut-off valve in the kitchen, the toilet in the guest bathroom wouldn't stop running water and the shut-off valve was blown, and the bathtub in our bathroom wouldn't stop running water.
I played Plumber Joe for two hours last night!!!!!!! Argh! Pedran has gained a new RL level!!!!!
^_^
I'll be ready. ^_^
Spagett — Sun, 01/04/2009 - 07:46By Vulk's personal request i've signed up for this. :D
i'm good to tank or dps, as i have a full set for either.
BUMP!
I agree with Torvo about the
bluetouguyss — Wed, 12/31/2008 - 19:52I agree with Torvo about the start time on sunday am. It is a tad early. We had really good luck getting people on sat am when I ran with torvo and we started at 10 or 11. That worked well for us and we might get more sign ups then? Thats just my two cents.
Love the concept...
Torvo — Tue, 12/30/2008 - 12:19But the timing is awful for me. I still consider Friday/Saturday nights to be sacred "real life" time, and for the love of Pete who wakes up at 8am on a day off from work!?
Still, figured I'd throw in my support anyway. If nothing else, I might sign up occasionally - or at least be coaxed into coming if for some reason I'm online and you need an extra healer.
ok, so this is perfect for a
bluetouguyss — Mon, 12/22/2008 - 13:38ok, so this is perfect for a startup to 25 mans for me. We will have a newborn son born about a week before this starts and I just cant committ to always being able to come but with this I can do it!
One friday a month I may have issues becuase I host all the national guard guys that still drill on weekends so they stay the night sometimes on friday. One Sunday a month I am down in vancouver visiting my son. So one friday and one sunday is a no go but all other days are for sures!
I am a feral tank right now but I am starting to put together gear to go resto and if we have steady tanks I have no problem respeccing.

lesda — Wed, 12/17/2008 - 11:39I am delisting since I'm already in a 25 man group.
Plus, will be starting a 10 man group soon.

Finndo — Tue, 12/16/2008 - 14:29I negotiated the terms of play with my wife successfully over the weekend. I'M IN!!
Would love to come and tear
Vulk — Fri, 12/12/2008 - 18:29Would love to come and tear things up with my axe(yes, RET). Additionally I can help fill one of the "additional raild leaders" spots.
I'm down for this. Maybe not
pulga — Fri, 12/12/2008 - 16:57I'm down for this. Maybe not for fridays, since that's party night, but sunday mornings im usually up.
I'll throw my name in,....
lesda — Tue, 12/09/2008 - 15:00I'll throw my name in,.... but not consistent on weekends.
I'll play backup.
Your Chance to Start Raiding
Olorien — Tue, 12/09/2008 - 14:21I am giving this a bump to get back on the front page of the site. This is for all those that are bugging Garreth about not getting a raid spot with the fish or the cats.
This Raid will give you an excellent oportunity to learn bosses and see some content while waiting to get your opportunity with one of our more dedicated raids.
Please post if you have any interest so we can get a feel for those of you who are out there.
Thanks
Zifter

Love the raid name
Finndo — Tue, 12/09/2008 - 09:47I would love to get into this, and it just might fit to avoid the namesake of the raid. Now all I have to do is hit 80......
Ah...the raiding at 8am kinda
Atar — Tue, 12/09/2008 - 06:49Ah...the raiding at 8am kinda gets me. I really don't think folks are going to be up at 8 to raid. But that's me! Good luck!
I would tend to agree.
Vulk — Fri, 12/12/2008 - 18:32I would tend to agree. Allthough 8 am is fine for me ( i wake up at 3 am on week days so 7 is really sleeping in) I can see where others wouldnt want to set an alarm to raid since they usually sleep in on weekends
If you are looking for Zifter...
Olorien — Mon, 12/08/2008 - 13:12I wanted to let everyone know that if you are looking for Zifter my name on the site is Olorien as you can see by who is posting this. I have also become one of the many of DK Kool-Aid drinkers and decided to drop zifter as my main and switch to my DK. So in game you will be looking for Sarricon. If you have any questions you can PM me on the site or talk to me in game.
ANOTHER TRAITOR!
Aidin — Mon, 12/08/2008 - 13:54ANOTHER TRAITOR! lol
Git-R-Done fellas!!!
I know
Olorien — Mon, 12/08/2008 - 14:07I know I got sucked in and before I knew I was mid 60's. Lvling a DK is like being on really addictive drug, you think you can just try it and all the sudden you are addicted! =-)
You do realize I'm going to
Fjork — Mon, 12/08/2008 - 13:58You do realize I'm going to try and take all of your mAlter's for this aren't you?
You can have them back on our off-weeks.
